Favorite trainwreck

epchick · #1 01-09-2010, 06:11 PM

My favorites are when members start talking about TEH CULT, The Triad or any AWESOME variation that involves mafioso type GC connections.

But clearly, we don't trainwreck the thread with that, we make the thread fabulous and entertaining.

Um yea. I remember one particular thread where the Power of the Triad pummled a woman who had to go alum her sophomore year to have a baby. I can't remember the exact reason but I was bashed by one of my sisters. Meh, all in good fun!

awwww yes, that was the thread that spawned the "awesome square of power" or something like that (i bumped it a few days ago). I don't remember you getting bashed though? Not cool! I did get some grief for saying that about that alum, but oh well. Next time they should be nicer! lol

Any thread that starts off with "please be nice to the PNMs" or "why is everyone so mean to the PNMs?" or "stop stalking the PNMs." Any accusation that people are just being "sooooo mean" is guaranteed to trainwreck, as it should.

I was bashed via PM. It seems to me that I wasn't being very ladylike.

I love it when that happens.

Also, to add to the list of trainwrecks: Any thread in which a GC tells another member any variation of "your posts don't represent *insert sorority here well* when they aren't even a member of "insert sorority here*.

My favorite is when none Greeks try to correct Greeks.

The classic can't be beat:

The V's and Fred Hatchett

The entire thread did not become a trainwreck but part of it did a few years back.

It was in the Word Association Thread.

Someone typed: Michael Jackson
Next Person: Pervert
Next Person: put the name of a now banned GC'er who was very long overdue for their ban
Banned Person: posts angrily in his usual inane, drunken form

I'm sorry but each time I think about that I laugh. I remember telling my husband about it even when it happened and he even thought it was funny.

I remember that one. I stepped away for a few minutes and came back to a TKO. Banned person always was good for a few laughs (and as a punching bag)

Oh

(and that is w/o the dumb smile that the emoticon had) to them!! You keep doing you

<3 Triad sisters.

Speaking on PMs, you know a trainwreck is about to happen when someone busts out the classic "thank you for all the PMs of support" or "i've gotten many supportive PMs from GCers."
